Traffic Alert – 4-16-24 – Large Concert and Baseball

PLEASE – Avoid the area around Thompson-Boling Arena at Food City Center and Lindsey Nelson Stadium when departing campus on Tue, Apr 16th in the evening.

On Tue, Apr 16th we have a large concert, with 20,000+ total guests expected. It will also be the time that most staff, faculty, and some commuters will be leaving campus.

We recommend you google directions to get off campus and home to avoid congestion. (I do this on many occasions to avoid traffic jams on I-40)
